Re: my wishlist and ideas

Another list: I:::M:::BAK:::


PERSONALITY ETC.
1. Choose what your character looks like at the start. p
ossibly a window of what he would look like as an adult?
leaving you, as a kid, looking the same at every start of a profile.

2. Choose where you come from which affects your looks.
BOWERSTONE : Normal skin colour, red/blonde/brown/black hair
HOOK COAST : Pale skin colour, white/reallyblonde hair
KNOTHOLE GLADE : Darker brown/tan skin colour, Dark brown/black skin colour
OAKVALE : Normal skin colour, blonde/brown hair

3. Live anywhere with your family. Within your bandit fort/camp, a hut in the forest, on a ship (If they imbed that into the game)


FAMILY & FRIEND

F1: kids can help (get money/food[hunt]/quests once OVER the age of 15.... quests over 18 -EQUIP THEM DAMMIT lol givem potions and resurrection vials

F2: train them dammit so less death

F3: Wife/Husband can be warrior so she/he may help you a bit....

F4: Doggy has... babies?

F5: Hunting Buddies who go hunting with you! Pub friends who buy you free beer!

F6: Brothers and Sisters?

F7: resurrection phial for dog- put 5 on collar and such

F8: Toys for dog and kids.... (Stupid, no? except the dog one)

PETS

Wouldnt it be nice if you could have a 3m long Liger (Half tiger, half lion) as a pet? strong, fast but hard to control. (doesnt eat you children lol)
Or a dragon that is 1-9m long and 3m tall? flies but is slow
a cat? weaker but more faster, agile and can climb trees
ELEPHANT ?! big, strong,fast but cant get through a thick forest.

Re: my wishlist and ideas

heres one of mine...id like this....

So, everyone knows that if u do an evil or good deed, your alignment changes, so...ur appearance changes as well. Horn, Halos, eyes ect. but lets say this,

Lets say ur charater is fully evil, they have horn, red eyes, black hair ect.
but, lets say that that is the 'default' evil look, lets say, u can go ahead and change it to ur liking, u can 'cut off' ur horns, regrow hair, ect.....(same for good)

id like that, i think it would give players a even better choose, so ur character is 'original' to ur liking :lol:

Just so you know. There will be no res phials in Fable 2. Increases the difficulty a bit. Which i think is good. Because anyone with 9 phials could kill

I personally don't like customizing I just don't like the character looking like a goob Most of the games I've played where you can customize the character never looks as good as the games where you don't have to do the work.

Maybe one day once the genome project is finished and public knowledge you'll be able to load your genetic code to the game and the main charicter will look exacly like you with out the tedium of slightly ajusting every attribute so that the face doesn't look bizacco

Maybe if you marry a bandit/pirate girl/boy or if your very poor and still want to marry you could use the stick fort as a marital home

I think that there may be multiple heros in the game however

If they are part ao the fighting action I'm guessing that the will get knocked out just like the dog (see below)

The dog doesn't die in battle. It will fight until it gets "killed", but once the enemies are defeated it will get up with only a minimal amount of health that you can either ignore or restore maximum or anywhere in between I imagine.

There are dog toys as seen in the trailer and I think I remember Peter saying that "...your kid might run to you and say Daddy, Daddy what did you bring me" but we all know about peter saying things about what's in the game =]

Other types of pets would be cool

Napoleon Dynamite: A liger.

Re: my wishlist and ideas

I want to see a lot of creative boss fights in Fable 2. I think i said in a thread before, I want the character to be able to use the environment around him/her as an advantage. Say a pack of balvarines is chasing you. Say you heard around town they have a great weakness to water. You're at the edge of a great waterfall and the monsters are all surrounding you. Then, you jump off. Now, some might just go after you, but they'll soon swim back with fear to the shore. So, you got to survive another day in the forest, and you can have a bit of fun :lol:

Or maybe this. You're battling a Pirate lord on top of a giant ship (It's a quest for the good guys, maybe). The clouds dim out, the sky grows dark. A storm roars towards the ship. though, the pirate is so fixated on killing you, he doesn't notice. It's a risky gamble, because you could get swept away with him. But as you clash sabers, you kick him off the edge of the ship. He falls, and drifts away in the storm. Then, you hold on tight and hop you don't end up like the captain.

So what do I want in boss battles? Really, detail. :lol: I learned this from seeing your character fall down the cliff with thunder, there was just a lot of interactivity in that.

Alright, I know a lot of people are fixated on emotions and weapons, but I would like to know more about the CLOTHES. Yea, I hope the clothes are very creative. Maybe you slay the great pirate lord, and slipped on his coat and you realize:"Hey, this is sweet!"

Now when I say clothes, I also mean armor. I hope LionHead mixes plating with clothing, to make the game still like Fable 1 in terms of armor, but like Fable 2 in terms of being colonial. I wish for a lot of other things in terms of armor, but i'm afraid it would be too long of a post.

I really do hope Peter is serious when he talks about leaving your dog. "When you do leave your dog", he says, "you might be sitting in a bar some day and all of a sudden...you har scratchings at the door. And out comes this bloody mess. And the people in the bar go 'Who's dog is that?' and they all look at you"

Re: my wishlist and ideas

well i think this is pretty thorough...i especially agree with the new lands such as whispers homeland...i understand that would require a bounty of memory space on the cd as well as a lot of loading time...but in this day and age what video game doesn't? i also like the burning down the houses part of the game...but i disagree with one thing...if the sword of aeons/jack's mask/avo's tear was "all powerful" and you could do anything with it, the game would get boring fast, especially if everyone died with one hit!!! that just wouldn't work im sorry to say...i also like your weapon ideas but have some of my own as well, such as double-bladed swords, ninja stars, spiked shields, or a scythe (maybe even a red trident for the traditional devil users :-D )...i also like the gang idea and have even thought about that before myself while playing fable and have thought about even running a town or kingdom and being able to wage wars against rival towns/gangs/distant lands...also as promised i would like to see a singing sword or sandgoose as said by the oracle...and being able to plead with the gods for life or death of loved ones or certain life decisions would be great as well, such as voices in your head or booming voices everywhere...even maybe a few cut scenes of traditional christian folk-lore (blinding an evil person and turning them good, or a moses- or jesus-like character who only appears in certain periods of the game...this person could also, like in christianity, hint towards a true god, since the oracle already gives away the idea that avo and skorm are false gods, the true gods name can be somthing such as Divinity or somthin of that nature) all in all, i like your ideas and these are some to think about!!!

Re: my wishlist and ideas

Kinda funny that you can now get pregnant when you play as a female lol pregnant wrrior of doom

LIST AGAIN!

BATTLES (B)

B1: Fight in large-scale battles. No strategic crap. Just a simple one where the leaders lead their armies towards each other.

B2: My my own little army.

B3: Be a soldier where you can rank up to knight.

B4: Kings order you to do a mission depending on which one you work for. This leads to you being able to lead your own small army to battle (Captains and knights only)

B5: simple ranking.
0.trained (soldier) [ started]
1.rookie (soldier) [ 10kills ]
2.experienced (warrior) [ 35kills ]
3.veteran (Elite warrior) [ 85kills ]
4.skilled (Captain) [ 160kills]
5.respected (Knight) [ 250kills]


UNCUSTOMISABLE LOOKS (UCL)

UCL1: more scar types. balverine claw slashes, sword cut. bullet ...hole?

UCL2:A healer. pay him to heal scars or make them 100% disappear

UCL3: ... a scarrer? lol... DIY scarring?

JOBS (J)

J1: the battle-related ideas can be where you get your quests from. the king or leader you work for.

J2: a job to get money. (Fable2s money will be more important in the game right?)

J3: steal somethings that you sell. getting caught will get you a fine, fired etc.

J4:Cheat on customers. this sword is $1000. you say "This sword has been used by the famous hero who single handedly defeated Jack of Blades in a duel. SO this blade costs $500,000"


ill add some more in the coming....hours,days,weeks,months.... im sleepy

Re: my wishlist and ideas

For scarring, how about make it come from bladed weapons. I hated how Whisper's staff gave me a scar that looked like a balverine scratch.

Weapons with different styles and movements is good, seeing as thrusting someone with the top end of an axe doesn't seem very functional. But don't keep it to the basic slash, chop and thrust; let's have some style, like martial arts movements, making it fancy and fun.

Sharper ai wouldn't hurt, but I'm sure that's being worked on with other characters along with the dog.

Useful emotions like a "yell" emotion, so people will move out of your way. Or some "command" emotions for your followers, like attack a certain enemy or defend yourselves/me, or even one to call them to you(like the dog's, hehe)

Finally, an almost completely open world. Where instead of every five footsteps there is a new area, make them into the main sections as to where are all connected. For Fable as an example, have the Guild areas all together, the Bowerstone areas, the Greatwood areas, Darkwood, Oakvale, Bandit Camp, ect.. Make it into whole sections instead of little pieces.

Re: my wishlist and ideas

Imagine this: everytime you play, it will be different! of the cities and towns like bowerstone should already be there but when you go somewhere that a path does not lead to (like into the wilderness) the game continuesly generates the landscape then saves the landscape so it will always be there. NPCs Buildings and such. I should email that to Peter M :)

I thought of this after reading the fourth paraghraph of Siegreids post so rep for you!


LIST!

MERCENARIES (MC)

MC1: More than two. well, actually they were bodyguards so added mercenaries who join you. more expensive but stronger and up to 4 mercenaries.

MC2: 2 bodyguards should remain the same.

MC3: Order them with a simple animation of hero pointing at enemy and saying "there!" P.S doesnt the bloodlust roar sound like Gimli from lord of the rings movie?

MC4: mercenary types. this one is a wizard this one is foreign and fights with the motions of fluid and such

MC5:Give them potions. so i dont have to heal life them all the time.


TRADING (TR)

TR1: Kill traders and take as much as you can off them

TR2: if you bought something like 5000 gold of them, kill them and take money back

TR3: be able to hold more of the same armours and weapons so bulk sells and buys.
Its annoying having a good weapon already then i find one in a treasure chest but still dont have it.

TR4: Rob them of their golds and goods and either let live or die

MONSTERS (MON)

MON1: Since it says in a book that KRAKENS(like the one in the sewers live in the oceans near the Northern Wastes (does it?) there should be more chances of fighting one while you travel by sea.

MON2: OGRES.
gorrilla-like structure.
walks.
doesnt have a ranged attack. except if youre in a rocky area like a mountain (Which where most of them should live) where they would pick up a rock from the environment and throw it a you. the rock would stay there until you (or NPCs) move it out of the way or you somehow destroy it.
hurts more than the trolls.
holds a club.
ROARS alot
can crush you if it falls on you.(falling by death for eg)


MON3: ORCS.
(BROWN species)
no fantasy rpg is complete with orcs or goblins or somekind of troll(which fable has)!
More dangerous and brutal than BANDITS
Dumb as HOBBES. Though some can get smart.

(GREEN species)
More dangerous and brutal than BANDITS and brown orcs
Smart and more organised. some should be able to tame trolls.
better more fearsome armour than browns

MON4 GOBLINS:
monkey-like structure . brutal ninja kind of animations

(GREEN species)
Lives in jungles

(BROWN species)
Lives in caves and mountains

MON5:GRYPHIN:
Mountains and other high places
Eagle/lion call blend
flies like a NYMPH but with more bigger loops and swoops

MON6:DRAGON:
Flies like GRYPHIN but with bigger loops and swoops
Godzilla with deeper voice call
strongest Fireball spell with a X3 with size!
Mountain tops for snow dragons whoes mouths and nostrils steam
Volcanic areas like volcanoes! (Duh)

MON7:DWARVES:
Make your character level up on ONLY strength skills and you have a dwarf but the size of a man! im talking short torso and legs
Mountains and inside them. (Should this be amonster or counted as a race?)

ARMOURS (ARM)

ARM1: Heavy armours should go over light armour. light this: Assassin armour under plate armour so you have the most over bottom half of face without modding.

ARM2: more variety.
PLus to make things cheaper and more customisable,
you should be ablle to buy somethings individualy.

Shoulderpads
Helmets
Pirate Bandanas (forehead)
Bandit Bandanas (Chin)
Vambraces
etc.

Re: my wishlist and ideas

ok heres what im hopeing for

1 lots of personal custumization with the dog i mean they have been developing the spore engine right why not use it here

2. explination for the spell casting if the world has moved on so much what with guns and citys wouldnt it be logical for the magic to vanish(dont get me wrong i love the magic)

3. some sort of horse or small vehicle would be kind of cool

4. i want to resurect the dog after it dies

5. i dont want the all powerfull ability of the sword of aoens but enough power to crush a small town would be nice not right away but by the end of the game

6. dog should be more powerfull as time progresses

7. not getting as old as fast

8. more enviroment interactivity (lifting boulders and such)

9. more unique spells (personally im holding out for a spell that makes you a giant)

10. more haircuts

Re: my wishlist and ideas

If I've said it once I've said it repeatedly (most recently roughly ten seconds in the "Will Guns Ruin It?" thread:

MAGIC AND TECHNOLOGY ARE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.

If you can hurl a bold of lightning at someone, why would you give that up just because they can hurl a ball of lead or other metal at you with a high velocity? If you can summon an impenetrable shield until you run out of power, why would you give it up so someone can give you a load of buckshot to the face?

And, again, there are many sci-fi and fantasy (really more hybirds of the two) books that show the combination of technology (at various levels of development and use) with magic (at various levels of visibility and power). Even some where magic powers technology, or technology generates magic. Some also go the route that has magic and technology as opposed, even anithesical forces, but I think that one is bull. Magic and tech should work together, not be opposed. I always prefer stories like that to those where one is used to the exclusion of others, or at least I enjoy the world more.

Re: my wishlist and ideas

A game with guns is not complete without this one thing: SHOTGUNZ

Anytways....

MARRIAGE: M

M1. simply divorce wife by going to a church or a building that helps in divorces.
M2. Cheat on your wife = score and some evil points.
M3.Killing your wife should equal more evil points than to divorce her. lol

PERMANENT CUSTOMISATION: PC

PC1: Scarring tattoos. i forgot what they were called. but they basically cut you a wound and it heals into the shape.

all i got right now.... not as long as it usually is.... awwww:(
